Highlights from the COOP Report

Government Trust Gap: The Opportunity for Industry

Only 31% of consumers trust government agencies to enforce poultry safety regulations effectively. Consumers prioritize internal transparency and third-party verification far above regulatory enforcement alone.

Top Concern:
Bacterial Contamination

Pathogens present both genuine food safety risks and critical consumer perception issues. Companies need rapid, accurate pathogen detection paired with intelligent predictive monitoring, and customers are demanding it.

Consumer Loyalty is Driven by Technology

Tech-forward companies leveraging AI, automation, and data analytics enjoy a significant competitive edge, influencing consumer trust, brand preference, and purchasing decisions.

Winning Trust Starts with Showing Your Work

Data, not slogans, drives confidence. Consumers are asking for tangible proof that poultry products are safe, clean, and transparently produced. Trust in 2025 hinges on technology like Artificial Intelligence, traceability, and data-backed claims. The companies that lead with food safety innovation, and communicate it well, will win loyalty in a market where confidence is fragile and perception drives purchasing decisions.
